The village hall is situated opposite Budgens supermarket, by the junction of The Street and The Footpath. The land the village hall is situated on was donated to the village in 1919 by Mrs Birkbeck, who lived in The White House in Upgate. In the same year, the Trustees purchased an old army hut from Langley Park and in 1939 an extension, The Men's Club Room, was added. A tiny room at the back was used as a doctor's surgery during and after WW2.
